Sunday Night Open Thread – Gold Cup Final Edition

BktGhodCAAAjSMx.jpg

I know you are all anxiously awaiting the Grand Finale of the Gold Cup or, as Hippo calls it, the Golden Shower Tourno.

The participants are a resurgent Mexican squad that seems to be rounding into shape after looking like shit in the last month going against a tough Panamá team that has been playing really well and was able to knock out the Americans on penalties.

I would like México to win, but Panamá will be tough. This may go to extra time.

Other topics of discussion could be:

  • Rory Gilmore’s Scottish Open victory over a game Scot newcomer.
  • The postponement of yet another NASCAR race due to rain. I thought the Farmer’s Almanac was huge in the NASCAR community…
  • Whatever lame baseball news y’all care about.

I’m super excited about the Women’s World Cup starting on Thursday. As a reminder, games will be on TSN, Fox networks, and TUDN. Since they’re in Australia and New Zealand, it will be mostly overnights so the night owls and early risers will have good games to watch.

***

If you are not following AFL, things are heating up as we head into the last five games of the regular season. Only three teams are officially out of it and anything can happen!

***

Another reminder: DFOCon in Vegas is ON for this November. The preliminary details are first weekend in November, staying in Downtown, and good times to be had. Look for the dorks with lanyards featuring your favourite DFO usernames!

Enjoy your Sunday night!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

The light pole communicates in Morse code.

yeah right

One more cab story. One of my regular drunks was without question the single most disgusting, foul, reprehensible I even don’t want to categorize this thing as human that you could ever meet.
He had one leg. Lived in a trailer filled with cats that he said never belonged to him.

Hit the bar at 9 AM. Most of the time when you picked him up at 2 when he was shit hammered his fly was undone because he’s…
Anyway.
Motherfucker had pride though.
Refused help.
Despite being drunk as fuck and on crutches and one leg.

I picked this fucker up for years.
Right at the busiest intersection in town.

One day, pull up front, Clarence comes out, drunk as fuck and I lean over and open the passenger door of the cab.
He’s struggling like a drunk ass motherfucker but doesn’t want help.

Dude in a car next to me sees this old drunk one legged fucker struggling to get in my cab and he yells at me!

“Why aren’t you helping?”

Clarence looks at him and yells back “Go fuck yourself that’s why!”

Light turns green dude in the car keeps driving and I look at Clarence and I see it’s crutches pointing at the sky.

Get out of my cab, haul Clarence into the passenger side and say “Ready to go home now?”

He said “Yep”

His fare was 3.90 back in the day. He gave me 4 bucks and held out his hand every single time for his 10 cent change.

I prefer the story about the time it was raining hard in ‘Frisco, and you needed one more fare to make your night. A lady up ahead waved a flag-me-down, she got in at the light…

yeah right

Quick follow up, one random day I get a call on the radio. I was cab 34, regardless of which taxi I drove I was 34.

“34, I just got a call from Clarence and he wants to know if he left his top teeth in your cab?”

I respond “34. That’s a no. I would have noticed.”

“34,10-4.”

In celebration of Mexico’s win, I’m eating this:

(actually has nothing to do with Mexico’s win, it’s just insanely good)

Nice nails, guy.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Pfft. You think I’d take a picture of my own hands and give 5Chan the opportunity to reproduce my fingerprints?

blaxabbath

Feels like something the deep state would do. For China. To hurt our kids. Who we hate and they’re lazy.

yeah right

I’ll try that. Right now.

BugEyedBoo

That looks like the good stuff alright.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Looks like the Crimea bridge got hit again.

Mr. Ayo

Janay Rice knows that bridge deserved it and should apologize

blaxabbath

This was always a good one.

“In October 2021, Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden was forced to resign after multiple leaks showed him using homophobic and misogynistic language. While what Gruden said was clearly inappropriate, what was even more clear was that he was the target of a hit-job. 
Who was behind this leak? …The U.S. House of Representatives’ Oversight Committee… released a report indicating Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder was the perpetrator.
If Snyder was the leak, his dirty bomb blew up in his face.”

\In the voice of Don Fontaine: “This summer a tale of intrigue, betrayal, and shitbaggery; Dan Snyder, Jon Gruden, and Roger Goodell star in The Dirt Locker

You don’t have to be a complete shitbag to do this job
But it helps.

If ever there were a moment for “Rocks fall.”

GWS sitting one game outside the 8 is quite fantastic. They’ve won more games this season than all of last season, Kingsley really has done a helluva job.

blaxabbath

I understand mega millions is way up.

Is now a good time to try one of those lotto pool places?

BugEyedBoo

We’d need our resident statistician to confirm, but since the payout if you win is higher than the odds of you hitting a number, I say go for it. Sell the house at webuyuglyhouses.com and put it all on Powerball. Let us know how it works out.

Mr. Ayo

Yes. We need a new clubhouse.

WCS

Think of the socks you can buy with the money…

Multiple crashes caused by multiple dumbasses literally taking selfies on the course during the Cheese-Eatin-Surreder-Monkeys Bike 500. Send these types to the front in Ukraine and Sudan; the cannon fodder needs replaced.

SonOfSpam

congrats, but I feel bad for Don, assuming Panama and Puerto Rico are the same thing.

When I fly I always want the window seat.

Mr. Ayo

OK, that one has to count.

King Hippo

I believe the tradition is for the winner to choose whether they want to give or receive the pee shower. If it goes to PKs, then everyone gets a bath.

Mr. Ayo

DIVE!

King Hippo

I will die on the hill of this being their best album.

WCS

I don’t agree, but, I can see where you’re coming from.

Mr. Ayo

The Rams wish they could get that many of their fans in the stands.

King Hippo

Dat’s wut yew get for downplaying Ciudad de los Angeles’ love affair with RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!

(yeah!)

Well into the fun part of travel disruption now, where I’ve been spending my meal vouchers on overpriced beers while swapping travel stories with some Englishmen from my flight. Got to check out the various Guyanas sometime soon, but first let’s see what I can do about changing my Air Canada flight back to the US! If anyone has a secret high speed tunnel, perhaps some sort of pneumatic tube, between Copenhagen and Madrid, now is the time to tell me about it!

In order of least to most offensive: Mark Hamill, Novak Djokovic, Nikola Jokic, Joaquin Phoenix, Jack Nicholson, Jared Leto, Xander Mobus, Cesar Romero, or Heath Ledger?

yeah right

Joaquin Phoenix. I never thought Heath Ledger could be topped in that roll.

I stand corrected.

Senor Weaselo

Alan Tudyk is phenomenal and I didn’t realize it was him.

/The other joke in there is Xander Mobus, who was Joker… the character from Persona 5
